Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on the login page with iOS 16.3.1, following the listed autofill steps. Inspect the login form's password-field handling and validation; the fix is complete when an iOS-filled password displays only privacy dots and allows Login to proceed.

[x] bug report
[ ] feature request
[ ] support request => Please do not submit support requests here, use one of these channels: https://forum.ionicframework.com/ or http://ionicworldwide.herokuapp.com/

Current behavior:

Filling my password with the built-in iOS password filling doesn't register that anything is in the field. This means the privacy dots are overlayed with the "Password" prompt, and trying to login shows "Password is required"

Expected behavior:

Only privacy dots are displayed, tapping Login proceeds as expected

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to login page
  2. Tap email address field
  3. Use the iOS prompt to fill the password
